Λευϊτικόν 15
1 καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν καὶ Ααρων λέγων
Yahweh also said to Moses/me and Aaron,
2 λάλησον τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ καὶ ἐρεῖς αὐτοῖς ἀνδρὶ ἀνδρί ᾧ ἐὰν γένηται ῥύσις ἐκ τοῦ σώματος αὐτοῦ ἡ ῥύσις αὐτοῦ ἀκάθαρτός ἐστιν
“Tell this to the Israelis: When an infected discharge comes out of a man’s sexual organs [EUP], that fluid should not be touched.
3 καὶ οὗτος ὁ νόμος τῆς ἀκαθαρσίας αὐτοῦ ῥέων γόνον ἐκ σώματος αὐτοῦ ἐκ τῆς ῥύσεως ἧς συνέστηκεν τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ διὰ τῆς ῥύσεως αὕτη ἡ ἀκαθαρσία αὐτοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ πᾶσαι αἱ ἡμέραι ῥύσεως σώματος αὐτοῦ ᾗ συνέστηκεν τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ διὰ τῆς ῥύσεως ἀκαθαρσία αὐτοῦ ἐστιν
Whether that fluid is blocked or continues to drip, it causes him to be someone who should not be touched.
4 πᾶσα κοίτη ἐφ’ ᾗ ἐὰν κοιμηθῇ ἐπ’ αὐτῆς ὁ γονορρυής ἀκάθαρτός ἐστιν καὶ πᾶν σκεῦος ἐφ’ ὃ ἐὰν καθίσῃ ἐπ’ αὐτὸ ὁ γονορρυής ἀκάθαρτον ἔσται
“And any bed that such a man lies on should not be touched, and anything that he sits on should not be touched.
5 καὶ ἄνθρωπος ὃς ἂν ἅψηται τῆς κοίτης αὐτοῦ πλυνεῖ τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ καὶ λούσεται ὕδατι καὶ ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
Anyone who touches that person’s bed must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
6 καὶ ὁ καθήμενος ἐπὶ τοῦ σκεύους ἐφ’ ὃ ἐὰν καθίσῃ ὁ γονορρυής πλυνεῖ τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ καὶ λούσεται ὕδατι καὶ ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
Anyone who sits on something that man has sat on must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
7 καὶ ὁ ἁπτόμενος τοῦ χρωτὸς τοῦ γονορρυοῦς πλυνεῖ τὰ ἱμάτια καὶ λούσεται ὕδατι καὶ ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
“Anyone who touches such a man must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
8 ἐὰν δὲ προσσιελίσῃ ὁ γονορρυὴς ἐπὶ τὸν καθαρόν πλυνεῖ τὰ ἱμάτια καὶ λούσεται ὕδατι καὶ ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
“If such a man spits on someone else, that person who is spit upon should not be touched. He must wash his clothes, and no one should touch him until that evening.
9 καὶ πᾶν ἐπίσαγμα ὄνου ἐφ’ ὃ ἂν ἐπιβῇ ἐπ’ αὐτὸ ὁ γονορρυής ἀκάθαρτον ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
“Everything that a man who has such a discharge of fluid sits on while he is riding [a horse or a donkey] should not be touched,
10 καὶ πᾶς ὁ ἁπτόμενος ὅσα ἐὰν ᾖ ὑποκάτω αὐτοῦ ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας καὶ ὁ αἴρων αὐτὰ πλυνεῖ τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ καὶ λούσεται ὕδατι καὶ ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
and anyone who touches the seat or saddle that he was sitting on also should not be touched until that evening. And anyone who picks up the seat or saddle must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
11 καὶ ὅσων ἐὰν ἅψηται ὁ γονορρυὴς καὶ τὰς χεῖρας οὐ νένιπται πλυνεῖ τὰ ἱμάτια καὶ λούσεται τὸ σῶμα ὕδατι καὶ ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
Anyone whom the man with such a discharge of fluid from his body touches without first rinsing his hands in water must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch him until that evening.
12 καὶ σκεῦος ὀστράκινον οὗ ἂν ἅψηται ὁ γονορρυής συντριβήσεται καὶ σκεῦος ξύλινον νιφήσεται ὕδατι καὶ καθαρὸν ἔσται
“If such a man touches a clay pot, that pot must be broken into pieces. Anything made from wood that he touches must be rinsed in water.
13 ἐὰν δὲ καθαρισθῇ ὁ γονορρυὴς ἐκ τῆς ῥύσεως αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξαριθμήσεται αὐτῷ ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας εἰς τὸν καθαρισμὸν καὶ πλυνεῖ τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ καὶ λούσεται τὸ σῶμα ὕδατι καὶ καθαρὸς ἔσται
“If such a man is healed from his flow of fluid, he must wait for seven days. Then he must wash his clothes and bathe in water from a spring. Then he will be able to be with others.
14 καὶ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ὀγδόῃ λήμψεται ἑαυτῷ δύο τρυγόνας ἢ δύο νεοσσοὺς περιστερῶν καὶ οἴσει αὐτὰ ἔναντι κυρίου ἐπὶ τὰς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου καὶ δώσει αὐτὰ τῷ ἱερεῖ
On the eighth/next day, he must take two doves or two young pigeons and come in front of Yahweh at the entrance of the Sacred Tent, and give them to the priest.
15 καὶ ποιήσει αὐτὰ ὁ ἱερεύς μίαν περὶ ἁμαρτίας καὶ μίαν εἰς ὁλοκαύτωμα καὶ ἐξιλάσεται περὶ αὐτοῦ ὁ ἱερεὺς ἔναντι κυρίου ἀπὸ τῆς ῥύσεως αὐτοῦ
The priest will sacrifice them. One will be an offering for the man to become acceptable to God, and the other one will be completely burned [on the altar]. As a result of the priest doing that, the man will be forgiven for having sinned.
16 καὶ ἄνθρωπος ᾧ ἐὰν ἐξέλθῃ ἐξ αὐτοῦ κοίτη σπέρματος καὶ λούσεται ὕδατι πᾶν τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
“Then semen accidentally flows from a man’s sexual organs [EUP], he must bathe his whole body, and no one should touch him until that evening.
17 καὶ πᾶν ἱμάτιον καὶ πᾶν δέρμα ἐφ’ ὃ ἐὰν ᾖ ἐπ’ αὐτὸ κοίτη σπέρματος καὶ πλυθήσεται ὕδατι καὶ ἀκάθαρτον ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
Any clothing or leather that has semen on it must be washed, and no one should touch it until that evening.
18 καὶ γυνή ἐὰν κοιμηθῇ ἀνὴρ μετ’ αὐτῆς κοίτην σπέρματος καὶ λούσονται ὕδατι καὶ ἀκάθαρτοι ἔσονται ἕως ἑσπέρας
When a man has sex with a woman and some semen spills, both of them must bathe, and no one should touch them until that evening.
19 καὶ γυνή ἥτις ἐὰν ᾖ ῥέουσα αἵματι ἔσται ἡ ῥύσις αὐτῆς ἐν τῷ σώματι αὐτῆς ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἀφέδρῳ αὐτῆς πᾶς ὁ ἁπτόμενος αὐτῆς ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
“Then a woman has her monthly menstrual period, no one should touch her for seven days. If anyone touches her [during that time], no one should touch the person who touched her until that evening.
20 καὶ πᾶν ἐφ’ ὃ ἂν κοιτάζηται ἐπ’ αὐτὸ ἐν τῇ ἀφέδρῳ αὐτῆς ἀκάθαρτον ἔσται καὶ πᾶν ἐφ’ ὃ ἂν ἐπικαθίσῃ ἐπ’ αὐτό ἀκάθαρτον ἔσται
No one should touch anything that she lies on or sits on during that time.
21 καὶ πᾶς ὃς ἐὰν ἅψηται τῆς κοίτης αὐτῆς πλυνεῖ τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ καὶ λούσεται τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ ὕδατι καὶ ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
Anyone who touches her bed must wash his clothes and bathe, and no one should touch that person until that evening.
22 καὶ πᾶς ὁ ἁπτόμενος παντὸς σκεύους οὗ ἐὰν καθίσῃ ἐπ’ αὐτό πλυνεῖ τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ καὶ λούσεται ὕδατι καὶ ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
Anyone who touches something that she has been sitting on, a bed or anything else, must wash his clothes, and no one should touch that person until that evening.
23 ἐὰν δὲ ἐν τῇ κοίτῃ αὐτῆς οὔσης ἢ ἐπὶ τοῦ σκεύους οὗ ἐὰν καθίσῃ ἐπ’ αὐτῷ ἐν τῷ ἅπτεσθαι αὐτὸν αὐτῆς ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
24 ἐὰν δὲ κοίτῃ τις κοιμηθῇ μετ’ αὐτῆς καὶ γένηται ἡ ἀκαθαρσία αὐτῆς ἐπ’ αὐτῷ καὶ ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας καὶ πᾶσα κοίτη ἐφ’ ᾗ ἂν κοιμηθῇ ἐπ’ αὐτῆς ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται
“If a man has sex with a woman [during that time] and some of the menstrual blood touches him, no one should touch him for seven days, and no one should touch the bed that he lies on.
25 καὶ γυνή ἐὰν ῥέῃ ῥύσει αἵματος ἡμέρας πλείους οὐκ ἐν καιρῷ τῆς ἀφέδρου αὐτῆς ἐὰν καὶ ῥέῃ μετὰ τὴν ἄφεδρον αὐτῆς πᾶσαι αἱ ἡμέραι ῥύσεως ἀκαθαρσίας αὐτῆς καθάπερ αἱ ἡμέραι τῆς ἀφέδρου ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται
“Then a woman has a vaginal discharge of blood for (many days/a long time), which is not her monthly flow of blood, or if her flow of blood continues after her monthly flow ends, no one should touch her until it stops.
26 καὶ πᾶσαν κοίτην ἐφ’ ἣν ἂν κοιμηθῇ ἐπ’ αὐτῆς πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς ῥύσεως κατὰ τὴν κοίτην τῆς ἀφέδρου ἔσται αὐτῇ καὶ πᾶν σκεῦος ἐφ’ ὃ ἐὰν καθίσῃ ἐπ’ αὐτό ἀκάθαρτον ἔσται κατὰ τὴν ἀκαθαρσίαν τῆς ἀφέδρου
And no one should touch the bed that she lies on or anything that she sits on while that flow of blood continues, just like during her monthly menstrual period.
27 πᾶς ὁ ἁπτόμενος αὐτῆς ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται καὶ πλυνεῖ τὰ ἱμάτια καὶ λούσεται τὸ σῶμα ὕδατι καὶ ἀκάθαρτος ἔσται ἕως ἑσπέρας
Anyone who touches those things should not touch anyone else; he must wash his clothes and bathe, and he should not touch anyone else until that evening.
28 ἐὰν δὲ καθαρισθῇ ἀπὸ τῆς ῥύσεως καὶ ἐξαριθμήσεται αὐτῇ ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα καθαρισθήσεται
“After a woman’s monthly menstrual flow ends, she must wait seven days before she touches anyone.
29 καὶ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ὀγδόῃ λήμψεται αὐτῇ δύο τρυγόνας ἢ δύο νεοσσοὺς περιστερῶν καὶ οἴσει αὐτὰ πρὸς τὸν ἱερέα ἐπὶ τὴν θύραν τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου
On the eighth/next day, she must take two doves or two pigeons to the priest at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
30 καὶ ποιήσει ὁ ἱερεὺς τὴν μίαν περὶ ἁμαρτίας καὶ τὴν μίαν εἰς ὁλοκαύτωμα καὶ ἐξιλάσεται περὶ αὐτῆς ὁ ἱερεὺς ἔναντι κυρίου ἀπὸ ῥύσεως ἀκαθαρσίας αὐτῆς
The priest will sacrifice one of them to be an offering to enable her to become acceptable to Yahweh again, and completely burn the other one [on the altar]. By doing that he will cause me, Yahweh, to forgive her for having sinned [DOU].
31 καὶ εὐλαβεῖς ποιήσετε τοὺς υἱοὺς Ισραηλ ἀπὸ τῶν ἀκαθαρσιῶν αὐτῶν καὶ οὐκ ἀποθανοῦνται διὰ τὴν ἀκαθαρσίαν αὐτῶν ἐν τῷ μιαίνειν αὐτοὺς τὴν σκηνήν μου τὴν ἐν αὐτοῖς
“You must warn the Israeli people not to do things that (defile them/cause them to be unacceptable to me). If they become (unacceptable to me/defiled), they will cause my Sacred Tent which is among them to become an unacceptable place to worship me, and as a result they will die.”
32 οὗτος ὁ νόμος τοῦ γονορρυοῦς καὶ ἐάν τινι ἐξέλθῃ ἐξ αὐτοῦ κοίτη σπέρματος ὥστε μιανθῆναι ἐν αὐτῇ
“Those are the regulations for a man who has a fluid that flows from his sexual organs or who should not be touched because some of his semen spills out while having sex [with a woman],
33 καὶ τῇ αἱμορροούσῃ ἐν τῇ ἀφέδρῳ αὐτῆς καὶ ὁ γονορρυὴς ἐν τῇ ῥύσει αὐτοῦ τῷ ἄρσενι ἢ τῇ θηλείᾳ καὶ τῷ ἀνδρί ὃς ἂν κοιμηθῇ μετὰ ἀποκαθημένης
and for any woman during her monthly menstrual period, and for any man who has sex with a woman during her menstrual period.”
